At the end of the third year the population of beetles will be 11,576beetles
<h3>Exponential equations</h3>
The standard form of an exponential function is given as:
y = ab^t
Given the following parameters
initial population 'a" = 10,000 beetles
Time = 3 years
rate b = 1.05
Substitute into the formula
y = 10,000(1.05)^3
y = 10,000(1.1576)
y = 11,576 beetles
Hence at the end of the third year the population of beetles will be 11,576beetles
